PC-maker Dell(DELL) is recalling batteries of 4.1 million laptop computers because they can overheat and cause fires. Notebooks shipped between April 1, 2004, and July 18 this year. They came with more than 30 laptop models and also were sold separately. "In rare cases, a short-circuit could cause the battery to overheat, causing a risk of smoke and/or fire," "It happens in rare cases, but we opted to take this broad action immediately." Dell launched a website, http://www.dellbatteryprogram.com, that described the affected models. the website tells consumers how to get free replacement batteries from Dell.
